[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up in a town with a ski area and is was definitely an activity only the rich kids could do. For most of us, the ski area was a good place to work — in the kitchen or rental area— not a place to actually ski. The vast majority of skiers were not locals. So for me, skiing was an activity for the rich. [/quote] Thank you. Good to know that there is one person on this board with perspective. I grew up middle class (real middle class, not DCUM middle class) within driving distance of the Rockies, and I couldn’t afford to go on the “cheap” ski trips for the high school kids. [/quote] +1 I grew up within a 2.5 hour drive of skiing and snowboarding and the only people I knew who ever did it had more money than we did. [/quote]
